ntp server, how to?

[Ender Wiggin]

Hi

I'm looking for a procedure to set up a ntp server. I don't care where the time is set, i just want all my boxes have the same timestamp.

Regards!

Here is our setup.

At client side.

root [/root] cat /etc/ntp.conf
#
#
# eXtended Network Time Protocol configuration file - ntp.conf
#
# Configuration file for all systems outside the stratum-3 peer group

# Replaced OLD stratum-2 servers (hpeas01, bkmstr01 and acapr01)

# The NTP peer group...
#
server server1.com version 3
server server2.com version 3
server server3.com version 3

#
# Allow server to sync to its own clock in case of network outage.
# Clock is configured as a stratum-9 clock

server 127.127.1.0
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 # show poor quality
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift

At server side(server1.com)

#cat /etc/ntp.conf
#
#
# eXtended Network Time Protocol configuration file - ntp.conf
#
# Configuration file for all systems outside the stratum-3 peer group

peer server2.com
peer server3.com


# Allow server to sync to its own clock in case of network outage.

server 127.127.1.1
fudge 127.127.1.1 stratum 5
#fudge 127.127.1.1 stratum 10 # show poor quality
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
server 127.127.1.1

Ops, forgot attach the procedure.

Try this:

On the server side:
# vi /etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons
export NTPDATE_SERVER=
export XNTPD=1
export XNTPD_ARGS=
# vi /etc/ntp.conf
server 127.127.1.1
fudge 127.127.1.1 stratum 10
# /sbin/init.d/xntpd stop
# /sbin/init.d/xntpd start

Client side:
# vi /etc/rc.config.d/netdaemons
export NTPDATE_SERVER=your_server_name
export XNTPD=1
export XNTPD_ARGS=
# vi /etc/ntp.conf
server your_server_name
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
# /sbin/init.d/xntpd stop
# /sbin/init.d/xntpd start


Regards!
